SCHEME interpreter in Common Lisp?
Hi,
I'm looking for a SCHEME interpreter/compiler written in Common Lisp,
for instructional use on Symbolics LISPMs. My main concern is that it
be properly tail-recursive. Speed isn't much of a priority, since
I'll be using it mainly for teaching.
What I've done in the interim is to write a Common Lisp function
which uses a giant TAGBODY and follows the interpreter given in
Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs. Thanks to the
TAGBODY, I can get tail recursion by using (GO). But this requires
implementing an interpreter, rather than having a way to compile
SCHEME to Common Lisp.
Does anyone have an implementation that might help me?

P.S. If anyone is interested in a copy of my little hack, I'll be
glad to pass it along. I'm probably going to continue expanding it in
my spare time...
